NH44, NH65, NH16: the Chandigarh–Chennai road reference
Between the two local stages, the conventional trunk reference is Chandigarh → Zirakpur → Ambala → Delhi → Faridabad → Agra → Dhaulpur → Gwalior → Jhansi → Sagar → Nagpur → Hyderabad → Vijayawada → Chennai on NH44, NH65, NH16.
The reference passes Chandigarh → Punjab → Haryana → Delhi → Haryana → Uttar Pradesh → Rajasthan → Madhya Pradesh → Uttar Pradesh → Madhya Pradesh → Maharashtra → Telangana → Andhra Pradesh → Tamil Nadu; any feeder transfer is a separate handover, not a border depot implied by this page.
With the named waypoints retained, the example road length is around 2,500 km (cross-country, 1,600+ km). Allow for any local collection and delivery transfers as well as the trunk movement. Check which stages the team includes when quoting the transit estimate.
